The Way To Eternity: Egyptian Myth
Fergus FLEMING
Hardcover
(Time Life Books, March 15, 1997)
This book is just simply packed with Egyptian myth and legend. although sometimes only assessing the better known myths and legends this book does delve into cultural as well as historical aspects of the Egyptian empire and does a profound job of displaying a wealth of information in only a limited amount of pages. The book as well does a surprisingly astounding job of including why the cultures of the times turned to certain myths as well as the purpose for their beliefs in certain aspects of myth. As well as in the other books in the Myth and Mankind series this book does a proficient job of providing basis for myths as well as their connection to life and other cultures throughout the world. This book will prove exciting to those seeking a base knowledge of Egyptian myth as well as a clear and concise synopsis of Egyptian culture and tradition as well as sufficient work for reference on the subject of Egyptian myth and legend. Highly recommend this book as well as the other books in the MYTH AND MANKIND series. -review
